The Brandon Ballet and its Artistic Director, Octavio Martin, will present this one-night performance with a contemporary twist on the classical, full length ballet, Cinderella. This performance will feature a unique musical score by Johann Strauss and innovative choreography. Cinderella is a classic fairytale sprinkled with humor which will delight and charm the entire family.
The Brandon Ballet is pleased to present this performance in partnership with the Children’s Board Heart Gallery of Tampa Bay, which is a unique photographic exhibit created to find forever families for children in foster care.
